it's pretty cool, and if you want to get something like this running on windows you could try Y'z dock (suied by apple, development stopped) ; there are several alternatives, but they take too much RAMs ..Google Labs has just launched a new little site aimed at centralizing access to many Google services. The JavaScript/DHTML based portal allows visitors to select a Google service using a "Macintosh-Dock" type interface. Upon selecting an item from the "GoogDock", users are whisked away to the appropriate service site.
